Tennessee school districts will make their own decisions whether or not to follow Gov. Lee’s recommendation

Public schools in Tennessee should stay closed through the rest of the school year due to the coronavirus pandemic. That recommendation came Wednesday afternoon from Gov. Bill Lee.

Gov. Lee chose not to mandate that schools remain closed, instead he is leaving that decision up to each school district.

3. Republican? I read an article just yesterday about the different results of neighboring states due

to the different handling of the crisis. Might have stung him a bit.

5. Yup Repuke in TN here

KY has wonderful Dem gov! That is probably the comparison you saw.

Don't give Lee too much credit, though becausr far as I know he was 1st gov to announce reopening early May to go along with what dump wants. 😳

His prob is Nashvegas & Memphis are botg very Dem!

So good luck to the asshat!

7. Oh and he left it to the areas I believe. Ya. Lee gets no credit. Also, KY gov has been a fav in

this. How did they get such a cool Democratic Gov? State of McConnell. Surely getting this Gov kentucky can kick out McConnell that has been there forever.

2. Yes, but left it up to each district to decide

I would not send a child to school during this!

4. I'm actually shocked that he kinda made the right decision

We'll see how this plays out.

6. Me too!

I think he is frustrated cuz both Nashvegas & Memphis are big Dem areas. I highly doubt Dem leadership in Memphis will go along with the ridiculous idea of reopening early May to go with what dump wants.

What an idiot.

I thought he would open schools as daycare for working parents.

Could he be listening to scientists? Experts? Nah - antithetical to being a repuke.

8. I can tell you he's a first class moron

The man literally said "Who could have seen this coming" in March during a conference call with health care facilities. Um, we all did Mr Lee that's why we were fucking prepared!!
